Phlebotomy Technician Certificate

The Phlebotomist Technician (pronunciation: fli-'bä-tä-mE ) is the person responsible
for drawing blood as instructed by a physician or other health care professional.
Most patients have their blood drawn at medical examinations or during hospital stays.
The phlebotomist performs venipuncture on patients, transports blood specimens, maintains
and cleans venipuncture trays, and may perform simple urinalysis tests, not to include
microscopic examinations

Upon completing AHE 141 and AHE 143, students within this program will be eligible
